Summary
NEST98PTS_UTM is a point coverage containing digital hydrographic datafrom the coast of Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon, USA. Thehorizontal datum is Universal Transverse Mercator, Zone 10 meters.The data set includes National Ocean Service (NOS) hydrographic surveyscollected between the 1926 and 1928, surveys collected in 1998 by the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) around the entrances to Grays Harbor,Willapa Bay, and the Columbia River, and additional data fabricated bythe author in order to generate smooth transitions between the data sets.The user is cautioned, to use this data set with full knowledge ofthe original intent the limitations, and assumptions used to generate it.
